Dutch Flat Mates: Hitlines
(Eingestellt am 16. April 2025, 11:00 Uhr von marty_sears)
Rules:
Normal sudoku rules apply.
The grid is covered in fog. Entering correct digits may clear fog somewhere in the grid. No guessing is necessary.
Every 5 in the grid must have a 1 directly above it or a 9 directly below it. It might have both, but it doesn't need both.
Beige lines are 'hitlines'. In this puzzle, hitlines only move orthogonally. Digits don't repeat on a hitline. The small clue on the square at the start of a hitline indicates the total of any digits along the line that equal their position number, starting at the square (which is position 1.)
Eg: If a 4-cell hitline reads 1794, then its clue would be 5 (the sum of 1 and 4) because 1 is in position 1, 4 is in position 4, and these are the only two digits which match their position number.

Dynamic fog has the potential downside of having a boring or telegraphed solve path, but that was not the case here. Very enjoyable steps with interesting logic.

Magnificent.
I loved the way there was always just enough information to keep going!

Another great puzzle in a great series. Exactly what I had expected, of course. Thank you very much for this lovely addition.

Very nice! I loved how the hitlines disambiguate every time, but especially the last one.

Nice one!
I got the first line pretty quickly, but after that it got a bit trickier. But there was always a logical way to continue, I just had to find it.

This is a very nice addition to the series. Works well with fog. I think it would be too easy with all the lines visible. With fog I would rate it between 2 and 3 *.

Very nice puzzle. The break-in took me a while to understand properly. But then the puzzle had a nice flow all the way. Thank you for another fabulous DFM puzzle, Marty!
